Default Gunmetal Exhaust Tips

Hi New to the forum and Lexus in general.

I own a 2015 IS250 F Sport. I got gunmetal wheels and chrome exhaust tips and would like to replace them with Gunmetal tips instead? Anybody know of any vendors who offer a nice set?

Thanks in advance.

Don't know about buying them in gunmetal, have you thought about getting them powdercoated?

Edit: Now that I bring this up I kind of want to do this in shiny black. thoughts?

Good idea. I'm the second owner of my car.. and the original owner didn't do the best job keeping the tips clean. I've tried getting off the carbon buildup numerous different ways without using something so abrasive that i leave scratches.. have come to the point where I'm just going to replace. Or maybe look into powder coat per your suggestion.
